Chapter 22: Can Lao Deng save me
Lu Chen quickly put all of their storage bags into his bag. However, the noise outside was getting closer and closer. He was about to reach the cave entrance..
Lu Chen's heart tightened. If they broke in and could not find the treasures in the cave, they would definitely not let him leave so easily..
Thinking of this, Lu Chen quickly got up and looked around, looking for an escape route..
There was a deep pit outside. It was definitely too late to run out of the cave. Then, where else could he hide?
In a hurry, Lu Chen could only return the way he came. When he walked around the corner, he caught a glimpse of the place where the meteorite had just been dug out. He found that there was actually a gap in the place where it had been deeply embedded..
He hurried to the gap and looked in questioningly.
It was dark and bottomless inside.
"Strange, it wasn't there just now..
.
.
To where?"
Just as he was wondering, the cultivators outside the cave had already barged in..
They saw the spirit mines on both sides of the cave at a glance and immediately cried out in alarm..
" Heavens, such a large spiritual vein, and all of them are high-grade spirit stones!"
"There are so many, we are rich!"
"This is what we Zong discovered first. We should take the lion's share..
”
"Why? We came first..
”
" Stop arguing!" someone suddenly shouted." Look, there are corpses on the ground!"
Everyone looked over and saw several corpses lying on the ground..
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and someone began to look around warily.
"Everyone, don't touch the spirit stones for now. If there's something fishy, let's investigate inside first!"
The crowd echoed one after another, so a group of people went deep into the exploration..
Hearing the voice behind him getting closer, Lu Chen could not care less about it. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and jumped down..
In the dark, the body falls rapidly.
Only after one reached the Foundation Establishment stage could one fly on a flying sword. He still could not fly, so he could only withstand the damage of the fall..
Thinking of this, Lu Chen counted silently in his heart..
In his previous life, he had seen on the Internet that when jumping off a building, he could fall four to five stories in one second. In other words, when he was at a low altitude, he could fall about ten meters in one second..
As long as you adjust your posture when you fall and do a roll, you can reduce the fall damage..
After all, he had plucked the two beautiful girls and his cultivation had at least reached the perfection of Qi Refining. Moreover, he was an Ancient Sacred Body. His physical body was strong, so he should not die so easily..
But when Lu Chen counted to 30, his palms were sweaty..
At 50, I'm a little confused..
When the count reached 200, he simply gave up..
What kind of physique can withstand jumping from more than a thousand floors?
Alas, it doesn't matter if you roll forward, as long as it doesn't hurt too much when you die..
I'll swing it!
It took half an incense stick of time to see the ground. Just as Lu Chen was thinking about what world he would travel to in his next life, a gentle force suddenly supported him gently..
Then, the falling speed gradually slowed down and landed gently on the ground..
Lu Chen looked at the jade ring in his hand doubtfully..
Can this old man save me?
At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly felt dizzy, and the surrounding environment began to change..
When he opened his eyes, he saw the civil and military officials kneeling on the ground and shouting in unison: "Long live my emperor!"
Lu Chen could not help but be stunned. He looked down at his dragon robe and looked around. He saw that the imperial hall was resplendent and magnificent..
Holy shit, am I wearing it again?
This opening, he had directly become an emperor?
Yes!
Which Emperor is this?
It didn't matter. No matter which dynasty or generation, there would definitely be seventy-two concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards!
:.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen simply waved his hand and said," Retreat!"
It was like walking on thin ice in the cultivation world for so many years, but it was finally worn out. What national affairs? Let it go later..
Then he stood up impatiently and ordered the eunuch beside him,"Lead me to the harem!"
At this moment, an old general staggered forward, holding a memorial in both hands. He bowed and said,
"Your Majesty!"
Lu Chen noticed that the old man's beard and hair were all white. He must have been an old minister of many dynasties. He looked like he had something important to report, so he gestured for him to continue..
The old minister said loudly," I implore Your Majesty to put the people of the world first. If so, the country will be blessed, and our ancestors will be blessed!"
Lu Chen felt that there was something hidden in his words and could not help but frown." Aiqing, it's fine if you have something to say..
I.
.
.
I hereby absolve you of all charges. Feel free to speak freely..
”
The old general took a deep breath." There is a demon consort in the harem. This matter is not trivial. Please be observant, Your Majesty, and remove this great harm for the court!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the court was immediately silent..
All the officials held their breath, waiting for Lu Chen's response.
Lu Chen was stunned." Demon Concubine?"
"Exactly," replied the veteran."Since His Majesty brought the demon concubine into his harem, the weather has changed and disasters have occurred one after another. Last June, there was a sudden hail, and the crops in the fields were destroyed. The crops were not harvested, which made the people's lives difficult and miserable..
”
" Not only that, the drought in the north has dried up the rivers and cracked the fertile fields. In the south, the wind is raging, houses are blown down, trees are rising, and dust covers the sky..
Your Majesty, if you don't get rid of this demon concubine, the country will be doomed..
I hope Your Majesty can see clearly and make a decision quickly to save the people in the world from fire and water."
Lu Chen frowned when he heard this..
What kind of demon concubine was this?
Could it really be that a woman could cause so many natural and man-made disasters?
Thinking of this, Lu Chen asked in a deep voice," You said that all this was because of the demon concubine's rebellion. Do you have any conclusive evidence?"
The veteran was stunned when he heard this. Obviously, he did not expect Lu Chen to ask back. He was momentarily speechless..
.
.
This old minister indeed has no direct evidence, but these disasters happened one after another after the Demon Consort entered the palace. In this old minister's opinion, this is not a coincidence. This old minister is willing to guarantee with his life that the Demon Consort is not a good person. I hope Your Majesty will reconsider!"
As he spoke, he moved his finger. Then, the civil and military officials beside him knelt down and shouted in unison," We are also willing to jointly vouch for you. Please reconsider, Your Majesty!"
Lu Chen narrowed his eyes and scanned the group of civil officials and generals..
He saw the veteran's little movements just now.
interesting.
Although he has never been emperor, he knows how to read people's minds..
There are only two possibilities for this class of civil servants to be so eager to kill a concubine.
Or, just like what the old minister said, she has the magic to bring disaster to the country and the people..
Or, this concubine touched their common interests and had to be removed..
Then he said,"Well, I'll send someone to investigate.".
”
"But no one shall mention it again until the matter is clear..
.
.
Heavy punishment!"
After saying that, Lu Chen waved his sleeves and left, leaving the court full of civil and military officials to look at each other..
Seeing this, the veteran leader snorted coldly and turned around to leave the court..
After a while, there was a murmur from below..
" What's wrong with the Emperor today? His attitude is so tough that he dares not listen to the Great General's words?"
"I don't know what's wrong with me. I don't think the military power in the world is in the hands of the general..
”
"He's just a puppet emperor, but he's actually getting tough..
”
Outside the court, Lu Chen left in a hurry and headed straight for the harem..
As he walked, he asked the eunuch who accompanied him,"
"What is the origin of the demon concubine they are talking about? What is her name?"
The young eunuch was stunned for a moment before carefully answering,"
"Your Majesty, how could you forget? That's the direct daughter of General Su Hai, her name is Su Li..
